This recipe was born when I imagined what a cross between a funnel cake and a fried Oreo cookie would be like. The result is better than I could have imagined! Don’t be fooled by how nice this looks. These sweet treats are ridiculously easy to make!
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add eggs, milk, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
Place all but six cookies in a large ziplock bag. (Reserve the last six for garnish.) Smash with a heavy object such as a rolling pin until you have unevenly sized pieces — some large, some small, and some crumbs. Fold the smashed cookies into the batter.
Heat about one inch of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Drop batter, about two tablespoons at a time, into the hot oil. Fry for about a minute per side, until golden.
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth.
Serve hot, with whipped cream and cream cheese glaze, if desired.
